If you have not checked out Obama's new health plan please do because he and his socialist buddies have managed to push there abortion on the US.
The new health plan will have provisions for abortion and partial birth abortions in it and if you have not seen how bad regular abortions are wait till you see what partial birth abortions are.
If you have the stomach for this go and look for Partial Birth Abortions and see how they are done and see if our new leader is far from being a christian and more like the anti-Christ.

Democrats' $540-Billion Tax Hike Will Force People into Government-Run Health Care, Congressman Says
Here we go again Obama is trying to force americans to allow government run healthcare please read article below,
CNSNews.com) – The Democrats’ proposed $540-billion tax hike to help pay for President Obama’s health care reform plan will boost costs for small businesses and thus force more people into the president’s proposed government-run health insurance program, said Rep. Michael Burgess (R-Texas), a doctor. “The short answer to that question, if I may, is yes,” Burgess told CNSNews.com, when asked if the proposed tax hikes would lead many businesses to cut costs, particularly health coverage benefits, to pay for the tax increases. Burgess, an obstetrician and gynecologist by profession, heads the Congressional Health Care caucus. He also said that many people would be forced into the “public option” program gradually to keep down the anticipated costs of the program. “The bill wants to force everyone out of the private market, [and] into the public option plan,” said Burgess, “but not too fast, because if you push it, then it’s going to score very high by the Congressional Budget Office.” Obama’s “public option” plan would establish another government-run health care system, in addition to Medicaid and Medicare, which would mandate that companies provide health insurance and that every person receive coverage. The administration says that this plan would create a “public option” market that would compete with private insurance companies to help keep costs down and give people more choice. Critics, however, say that the “public option,” which would be publicly funded with taxpayer money, would have a major advantage over private insurance because it could always rely on the public purse to cover costs. It would never actually have to manage itself competitively or in a free-exchange marketplace because it would be insulated from real consumer demand and could ration supply as needed to control costs. At Monday’s press conference, several House Republicans denounced the “public option” and indicated that the proposed tax hike, being pushed by House Ways and Means Chairman Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.), would not solve the problem of health care costs in America.

When it comes to tax increases that could force small businesses to limit or drop their health coverage, Rep. John Fleming (R-La.), also a physician, said: “I think that indirectly strikes to the heart of the problem. “The way you get costs down in any economy – and remember that health care is 20 percent of our total economy – the way you get costs down and services up is through competition,” Fleming added. Even if we had “a free trillion dollars for 10 years,” said Fleming, there is still nothing in any of the Democrats’ proposals to “do anything about competition that would drive costs down.” “Once you start on the road of regulation, then you always need another, another, and another regulation,” said John Hoff of the Galen Institute. “It is inevitable.” Hoff said that the current Senate health care proposals seem to be “turning the rhetoric of which we have seen over the last 20 years into legislation” with no “intervening thought process.” Rangel introduced his $540-billion tax plan last Friday. The legislation would tack “surtaxes” onto the income taxes paid by individuals and couples in the upper brackets of the tax code. An additional one percent income tax would be levied on families making over $350,000 per year and individuals making over $280,000. The rate would jump to 1.5 percent for families making over $500,000, and double to three percent for families making over $1 million. According to Burgess, we should “look at the next 10 years” because “that’s going to be the key to about what the real cost of this is.” “The quicker you push people into the public plan,” he said, “the greater the cost is going to be for the overall bill.” In an effort to stall Democratic health care legislation, Fleming has proposed H. Res. 615, which would urge congressional supporters of a government health care plan to “forgo their right to participate in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) and agree to enroll under that public option.” The Health Care Caucus will hold another forum on July 27, before Congress’ August recess.

Green Shute’s or Grass roots
Here we go again we are hearing on the media that the economy is showing signs of recovery so called Green Shute’s like new life in spring.
Well all I see is more pork barrel spending and gas prices keep raising and more taxes and fees to put us farther in debt. Dealerships from GM and Chrysler closing down as measures to get more tarp money from our government so it can be burned to house no sales in this economy.
As I recall from research in history that back in the great depression we didn’t have a government that is bailing out creditors and merchants maybe this is for a good reason?
Maybe if we didn’t bail out the greedy companies and frivolous spending habits of AIG and rather let them fall and file bankruptcy maybe we could have actually used that money to stimulate us the consumers then yes there would be more spending.
Where’s my bailout oh yes I got an extra $30 a paycheck though I am not complaining because at least I have a job in this poor economy. I have so many friends and neighbors out of work it would have been nice to allow the bailouts for small business loans and startups for unemployed folks to help them get back on there feet and stimulate the economy and not tax the death out of small business’s.
The next time you hear about Green Shute’s just remember those new Shute’s need cultivation and protection from the elements in which we don’t have because it has been blown on pork barrel spending.

Abortion Common Ground!
Hello, folks i am here today to say it is amazing how people will accept anything Obama says i guess that's how it was voted in as president.
Come on people he is a public speaker and that's what he was trained to do in life is be able to speak in front of many people and use the silver tongue to get you on his side.
As far as abortion goes its in the Bible Gods Word that it is forbidden just as adultery and homosexuality. If we cant accept what the Bible says as law then we don't need to be implying that we are Christians or followers or God.
There is no COMMON ground on this subject just like there is no common ground on homosexuality as much as we would like there to be.
As far as abortion to me its as bad as the mother taking the babies life themselves instead of a doctor or clinic doing so, the baby is a Innocent life that has no choice to be conceived or taken.
I praise the students at Norte Dame that protested honoring Obama at there college they are right on and justified, for someone that has been putting down what Christians stand for since he has been in office does not deserve to wear a robe and be honored for crushing our morals in this country.
This country is truly headed down the wrong road and this country needs prayers from all Christian's to help turn this world around and restore the morals in this country and my Gods will be done in our government.
God Please Bless America i pray please restore the morals in this country,

Where's The Money? Going?
Stimulous or no stimulous that is the question?
Please see the aretice below from CNS news a NON-Left wing News Site,
Washington (AP) - Counties suffering the most from job losses stand to receive the least help from President Barack Obama's plan to spend billions of stimulus dollars on roads and bridges, an Associated Press analysis has found. Although the intent of the money is to put people back to work, AP's review of more than 5,500 planned transportation projects nationwide reveals that states are planning to spend the stimulus in communities where jobless rates already are lower. One result among many: Elk County, Pa., isn't receiving any road money despite its 13.8 percent unemployment rate. Yet the military and college community of Riley County, Kan., with its 3.4 percent unemployment, will benefit from about $56 million to build a highway, improve an intersection and restore a historic farmhouse. Altogether, the government is set to spend 50 percent more per person in areas with the lowest unemployment than it will in communities with the highest. The AP reviewed $18.9 billion in projects, the most complete picture available of where states plan to spend the first wave of highway money. The projects account for about half of the $38 billion set aside for states and local governments to spend on roads, bridges and infrastructure in the stimulus plan. The very promise that Obama made, to spend money quickly and create jobs, is locking out many struggling communities needing those jobs. The money goes to projects ready to start. But many struggling communities don't have projects waiting on a shelf. They couldn't afford the millions of dollars for preparation and plans that often is required. "It's not fair," said Martin Schuller, the borough manager in the Elk County seat of Ridgway, who commiserates about the inequity in highway aid with colleagues in nearby towns. "It's a joke because we're not going to get it, because we don't have any projects ready to go." The early trend seen in the AP analysis runs counter to expectations raised by Obama, that road and infrastructure money from the historic $787 billion stimulus plan would create jobs in areas most devastated by layoffs and plant closings. Transportation money, he said, would mean paychecks for "folks looking for work" and "folks who want to work." "That's the core of my plan, putting people to work doing the work that America needs done," Obama said in a Feb. 11 speech promoting transportation spending as a way to expand employment. Also, Congress required states to use some of the highway money for projects in economically distressed areas, but didn't impose sanctions if they didn't. States can lose money, however, if they don't spend fast enough. The AP examined the earliest projects announced nationwide, the ones most likely to break ground and create jobs first. More projects are continually being announced, and some areas that received little or no help so far may benefit later. The Obama administration could also encourage states to change their plans. To determine whether there was a disparity in where the money would go, the AP divided the nation's counties into four groups by unemployment levels. The analysis found that, no matter how the early money is measured, communities suffering most fare the worst: --High-unemployment counties, those in the top quarter of jobless rates, are allotted about 16 percent of the money, compared with about 20 percent for areas least affected by joblessness. --In low-unemployment counties nationwide, those in the bottom quarter of jobless rates, the federal government is spending about $89 a person compared with $59 a person in the worst-hit areas. --In counties with the largest populations, the government is spending about $69 a person in areas with the lowest unemployment and $40 a person in places with the greatest job need. The analysis also found that counties with the highest unemployment are most likely to have been passed over completely in the early spending. Among them: Wheeler County, Ore.; Steuben County, Ind.; Macon County, Ga.; and Crowley County, Colo. Many others are getting minimal help in this round: Vermillion County, Ind.; Lapeer County, Mich.; Presidio County, Texas; Tallahatchi County, Miss. Those counties still will benefit from job creation elsewhere in their states, said Lana Hurdle, a Transportation official overseeing the agency's stimulus money. "Even if you have to drive to it, it's better than no job," Hurdle said. Joel Szabat, who also oversees the stimulus for the Transportation Department, said the agency presses states to build projects in struggling areas but does not normally consider how much money is going to each county. Presented with AP's findings, he said: "I will be going back to ask our folks to do this kind of analysis, the overall amount for the projects." "Our goal, and I think it is a goal that will be achieved, is that you will see that a fair share of this money will go to these areas," Szabat said. Obama's plan sends $38 billion to states and local governments for roads, bridges, transit and other infrastructure, about 5 percent of the overall program that also includes money for, among other things, schools, community development, technology, worker training and tax breaks. All counties will receive some stimulus relief eventually. But the haste voiced by the White House is not reflected in the flow of highway money so far. "We cannot wait," Vice President Joe Biden said last week when announcing a $30 million transit project in his hometown of Wilmington, Del., where the 7.7 percent unemployment rate remains below the national average. "We're spending a lot of time and money. Why? It's about ... jobs, jobs, jobs, jobs. That's why we cannot wait." Yet residents of Perry County, Tenn., will have to wait. County Mayor John Carroll said he's disappointed his community, which suffers from 25.4 percent unemployment, won't receive a dime any time soon for its road needs. "It's pretty easy to draw a connection between the high unemployment rate and the lack of any four-lane highways," he said. Federal auditors acknowledge they can't yet track the transportation money that is leaving Washington and there is no single list of the thousands of projects planned in each state. For its analysis, the AP used lists of projects approved through March by the Transportation Department and collected lists of stimulus projects that have been announced in 49 states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Federal officials have approved 2,800 projects. The remaining projects on the AP list represent the states' official plans for the money. Only Virginia, which has not announced its plan, is not included. As the number of projects grows, places like Elk County, Pa., could still be left out because they could not afford the upfront costs needed to put proposals in the pipeline. "It's all based on this 'shovel readiness,'" said Elk County Commissioner Daniel Freeburg. "That's been our stumbling block." Elk County surely could use jobs. The once thriving north central Pennsylvania county is home to metal factories that equip the nation's auto industry. Layoffs are mounting. Freeburg is pinning hopes on getting future stimulus money, such as for energy conservation programs, that will create jobs and rekindle the local metal and lumber industries. In promoting his plan, Obama went to hard-hit communities such as Elkhart, Ind., and Peoria, Ill., and promised the jobs would come. "Now, I know that some of you might be thinking, 'Well that all sounds good, but when are we going to see any of that here in Elkhart?'" Obama said. "'What does all that mean for our families and our community?' Those are exactly the kind of questions you should be asking of your president and your government." Obama kept his promise to Elkhart, which so far is expected to receive $13.7 million, and Peoria, which should receive at least $10.6 million. But other, similar counties have not been so lucky. For now, laid-off workers in Elk County, Pa., question why they've missed out, while money flows to more prosperous places. "Why are they helping them?" asked Wendy Cameron, 50, of Saint Marys, Pa., who lost her job in a metal factory last year. She doesn't have health insurance and would gladly take road work. "They're not in need. We are. "What are these people going to do? Is everybody going to go on welfare? I've never been on welfare. I don't want to be on welfare."
